Just read a great post from Dave Fitch about using too much technology in worship. You can read and comment
HERE
I also posted this quote in a comment yesterday - thought it would be good to have on the front page:
"It is my opinion that art lost its basic creative drive the moment it was separated from worship. It severed an umbilical cord... In former days the artist remained unknown and his work was to the glory of God... Today the individual has become the highest form and the greatest bane of artistic creation."
... Ingmar Bergman (b.1918), The Seventh Seal, introduction
I think there is a tie here to church marketing. What is it we're really trying to "sell" when we market church? I believe most of it is the man-made aspect, rather than the God-who-can-save/transform. I just don't know if marketing should ever be more than "go and tell..."; or even "go and live...".
Just some thoughts. I think that's largely what the Revolution is about - it's a revolution of the soul - and I'm not sure you can "sell" that. But you can certainly 'tell' it; and it should, at some point, be evident in your day-to-day life. Anyway...
peace. live the revolution.
